how volatile the battle for the area has become. harry force, it has more from keith new images from russia's defense, ministry of the continued evacuation of her son. ukraine, calls it a false deportation. on friday, for the 1st time in public, the russian president added his voice to the existing orders to leave her for them over those living in person should be removed from the zone of the most dangerous actions. because the civilian population should not suffer from the shelling from the offensive counter offensive, or any other actions connected to the military activities. president putin was marking russia's unity day, but from one of russia's civilian administrators. in her son, there was scant unity in the messaging on this you're calling about him come in 1st he announced a 24 hour curfew. he said to allow the military to clear the city of nazis before deleting the video and replacing it with this one. would it be helpful? yup. all right, bye bye and cares on the fight continues against the insurgency and the nazi

collaborators. there is no limitation in care sun that restricts the life of the ceiling. the same official on thursday talked to the likely russian military withdrawal from the city only to backtrack on that statement to saying that he hoped it would not happen. it all adds to the intense confusion about the real situation inside her son. for all the talk of a russian withdraw ukrainian soldiers, north of the city expect to have to fight for it. the combination of a counter offensive launched in august. the use insights, the tactic is just to miss loosely, thus, it may come. no such a science that they are legal, but they are waiting for us to, to the start some actions, but ukraine's defense minister is sounding more optimistic about a russian retreat or in his sarcastic phrasing. an act of good will which got

blocked. you thought we, we, i think that potentially are ready for another act as goodwill regarding the left bank of the deep pro river, just in the area of the city of her son. but for verse they will still have to lose some of their potential. thanks to the corresponding actions of our armed forces is law. in moscow, president putin accused the west once again of creating in ukraine and anti russia, making conflict with what he called its nazis inevitable in you. the more pressing question now is how the coming conflict for her son will play out. harry force it al jazeera keith. s at bay has visited the village in the hearse on region. it was retaken by ukrainian forces last month. but resident say the memories of the russian occupation still vivid. we still don't know what's exactly going on with her son offensive, but what we have heard is that the ukrainian military has taken back

a village to day. why is that significant? well, when the ukrainians take back of small village or tan, what lays ahead of them are open fields, which means that the russians have to retreat a considerable distance to get cover. and it also means ukrainians can move the i to reform and strike at a great distance. now this village in her son was taken back by the ukrainians a month ago, but this school was hit just last week. now what that shows is that even though the russians may be retreating, the still able to strike targets an infrastructure at a considerable distance with their missiles reflect legally things in it. while we spoke to people in this village. and they told us about their experiences whilst the russians were here. now we have a lot of her and i do not understand what kind of for friend them's russians, can have during the war, under the muzzle of machine guns. and each 3, several soldiers whose machine guns accompanied people, forced them to what were you to have? this is a rather docket. it destroyed everything,

killed my ducks after the blood. i was pulling him out from under that boom. yet because the animals will not cause. i survived world war 2, but i never thought that the russians will attack us. they were here, i saw them, they walked in every house, and i wanted to say so much to them. but my son stopped me. he said, don't say anything to them, they will kill us again. although this village is taken back a month ago. we're still hearing constant artillery shelling and missiles being fight overhead and also the russians firing back. so although people here are trying to return to life as normal as it was before the russians were here, the war is still ongoing. caves may i say it around 450000 homes are without power following russians strikes on the city. russia has repeatedly carried out miss allan drone, a tax on ukraine's power facilities. the state owned energy grid operator had said

federal and state laws requiring 60 days advance notice and severance payments. musk fired all twitter senior executives last week. as soon as he bought the company for $44000000000.00, musk also says he wants to charge users a subscription fee to have their identities verified on the platform, which has outraged many users. must describes himself as a free speech, absolutist who and fears that twitter will relax its moderation under his management, allowing hate speech and misinformation to flourish has led prominent advertisers, including general motors, pfizer, audi volkswagen, and others to suspend advertising on the platform. experts also expect elite users in politics, entertainment, and other feels will flee twitter in droves if it's standards on hate speech or misinformation are relaxed. major leaders,

and especially people within government can't be associated with that on, on any social media platform along that nature. and so they, they will be forced to leave the platform by whoever is, is managing them. musk tweeted on friday, the twitter has suffered a massive drop in revenue, which he blamed on unnamed activists pressuring ad tigers. musk says he wants to take twitter into private ownership so that its shares would no longer be publicly traded, and it would no longer be subject to federal securities regulation. that's a complicated regulatory process that could take years to accomplish. and with all of the lawsuits already filed, it all means plenty of work for lawyers. even as thousands of twitter employees are now out of a job. rob reynolds al jazeera san francisco. the still ahead on al jazeera,

and that north korea was getting blanket protection from china and russia. these members have bent over backwards to justify the dpr kay's repeated violations. and in turn, they have been abled the dpr k and made a mockery of this council. you don't get to abandon security council responsibilities because the dpr k might. so you weapons to fuel your war of aggression in ukraine, or because you think they make a gut regional buffer to the united states out diplomatic, it is a james pies has more on that security council meeting. we also heard from the assistance that country general for political affairs collared key ari briefing on behalf of the secretary general. he said that the security council needs to do all it. can. he said unity of the security council is critical. the problem is that not

unity on this issue, the security council, certainly many of the members would like to come up with a joint statement, a strong statement condemning at north korea. but it appears such a statement can't be negotiated because china and russia are opposed to such a statement. just before the security council meeting started, i spoke to the chinese ambassador john june. he said to me, you're focusing just on north korea is miss solves. this is spiraling out of control and there is another side to it. and that is the military exercise is being conducted by the u. s. and south korea. so china has a very different point of view on this rusher, of course has a different point of view as well. and some observers believe, brought russia may be influenced by the war in ukraine and recent intelligence reports suggesting that russia is getting weapons from from north korea. ron's president has heard back at his us count about joe biden, who said to ron,

as it stands now, and no one quite knows how this block are going to vote. so there's going to be intense competition for their votes. now another reason is the recent survey suggest that the government, a government's approvals, ratings, has fallen to 30 percent. that's even lower than a poll that was released just before the last general election in 2018. and in that election, a coalition that ruled the country for 65 years fell for the 1st time in malaysian history. so there's a chance here for the main opposition block to form the next government. and the election is only 2 weeks away. so i any results predicted by analysts at this point in time went to analissa saying that, you know, the results are they don't, they don't see any one party anyone, formal coalition being able to win enough seats to form the next government. so

they expect there's going to have to be informal alliances, discussions for the block, about fort forward for people to form the next government for parties to come together to form the next government. now the same says and survey poll suggests that 26 percent of voters favor the main opposition block. a bucket on her panels are known as the lines of hope in english. and this is led by man why bryan, he's a former deputy prime minister who's turned who's now opposition leader in his jail . twice for sodomy on what's, why do you believe to be politically motivated charges? you know, 24 percent of voters are said to favor the ruling coalition by sagnasti now also known as the national are a national front. and then there's another 30 percent 30 percent or about a 3rd of voters who are said to be indifferent. so there's going to be intense competition for these fence sitters votes. now while it's too early to call it, but analysts already predicting that they don't see one main party or one form of

the lions being able to win enough seats to form the next government. ok, thank you so much as florence or louis for us in kuala lumpur, the united nations is hopeful aid will start arriving in ethiopia, is to drive region within days following wednesday announcement of a permanent cease fire. officials have been checking the safety of supply roots in the area, and so the signs a positive to guy has struggled with food and fuel of shortages since the start of the conflict between regional forces and the ethiopian government. 2 years ago or cutter has stressed that journalists should never be a target for violence or killings. those comments were made at a you, in meeting in vienna, marking 10 years since it released an action plan for the safety of the profession . 35 journalists have been killed this year alone. one of them was al jazeera, as sure in a barclay, the palestinian american was shot dead by israeli forces,

here is the future of many patients techies at the center say data aggregation allows deep insights for analytics and predicting patterns. we have the car code control team and our security staff on the ground, and we have the law enforcement agencies. and we are complimenting their decision making with data. so that's very unique. organizers want to avoid seems like this in may chaos erupted in paris when police use tear gas and peppers free on fans trying to get into the champions league final. last month, a $125.00 people were killed during a stampede. in indonesia, it happened when fans poured into the field and then tried to escape and police fired tear gas banners in cutter say their learning from these incidents to avoid any of these scenarios. some of the members of this team have been here since the 2006 asian games. and now with the help of all the gadgets,
